There is increasing evidence that postpartum doulas are effective in helping moms be more confident and responsive to baby.
In a study published by JOGNN, a journal of the Association of Women's Health,Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses, "postpartum doulas facilitate the transition to parenthood by providing education (evidence-based information on infant feeding and soothing, recovery from birth, andcoping skills) and nonjudgmental emotional support for the new family"  (JOGNN 2009; Vol 38, Issue 2, p. 148).

This and other studies confirm what our customers tell us. Doulas are trusted advisors who gently guide mother and baby (and father and siblings) during the first crucial weeks and months.  They help the whole family to relax and enjoy this new adventure!
